SmartKey deadbolts and locks feature a patented side-locking bar technology, central to the locks ability to be rapidly and easily re-keyed. This stainless steel side-locking bar also replaces the traditional pin and tumbler design that is particularly vulnerable to increasingly popular lock-bumping attacks. Additionally, the cylinder uses two steel balls inserted into the front of the key face to provide improved drill resistance. Delivering outstanding strength and protection, SmartKey deadbolts and locks have passed the most stringent lock picking standard, UL 437, par. 11.6 and are available in all ANSI Grades.Since SmartKey re-key technology was introduced three years ago, demand has exceeded expectations and driven the technology into additional Kwikset product lines. Recently, Kwikset added SmartKey re-key technology to their entire box pack product line-up to meet builder demand for improved security, cost savings and convenience. “Peace of mind shouldn't be reserved for the few. By expanding SmartKey to all price points and product lines, Kwikset aims to make improved home security accessible to all,†concluded Flaharty.
